I am a dirty filthy liar. It's a 350 MHz B&W, not 450.

Other than that, though, everything checks out okay. 128mb RAM, 6 GB hard drive, and it's running 9.2 happy as a clam. Local shop sells 256mb PC133 DIMMs for $4 a piece, so I'm going to toss 1 GB of RAM in there, and then see what I have lying around downstairs for IDE hard drives. I suspect 20-40 GB will be the answer.

Finding a video card could prove slightly more problematic. The Rage is okay, I suppose, but I don't think it's going to like me very much when I try to run OS X. (I'm shooting for 10.4.) I'm thinking maybe a Radeon 7000 from a G4 is in order?
